Flash of brightness


A flash of light like a bulb, came into sight
Shining outside my window, with a flash
The evolving view was bright and beautiful
I stood still and watched with happiness
The Goldfinch took flight, flapping to my heartbeat

The yellow goldfinch was bright like a light bulb. My flower bulbs haven't bloomed yet. Thank you Darlene. Hugs :)
